Anyone still making carbon fiber tub?
Like the title says i keep seeing old thread and build of rc10 with carbon fiber tubs and they all look great but from what i seen all the companies that did make them either stop or dont exist any more is this correct or is there still one company in middle earth that still makes them.

Nobody currently. Fiberlyte would be the only one left still around and I’m quite sure they said no more
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

Re: Anyone still making carbon fiber tub?
Were there others than FL and Fusion anyway?
(and this is one of the projects in the pipeline btw... FL tub, all CWF parts where possible including Jirka's somewhat odd-looking motor plate, then only polished alloy (inc. rims) and black plastics for the rest... if only I had the time to get started...)

I remember hearing of a 3rd company that made them, i think they were called Buffalo Composites. But dont quote me on that i never seen one of their tub in person.

Re: Anyone still making carbon fiber tub?
interestingly, according to Google, this is the only obvious place on the internet where this has been discussed in the past
